Loading Inductor 2.4KVAR Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-EAE-11306
The Loading Inductor 2.4 kVAR introduces an inductive load into a compatible AC circuit. Unlike a purely resistive load, an inductor causes current to lag behind voltage. This characteristic allows students to examine phase relationships, reactive power and power-factor behaviour through practical measurements.
The unit has a stated reactive-load capacity of 2.4 kVAR. It can support structured experiments involving alternators, generators, transformers and AC power-system trainers when their electrical ratings are compatible. Operating voltage, frequency, phase configuration, load steps, construction material and terminal arrangement must be confirmed before ordering.
Key Features
2.4 kVAR capacity: Provides a stated inductive reactive-load rating of 2.4 kilovolt-amperes reactive.
Inductive AC loading: Creates a lagging-current load for practical alternating-current investigations.
Reactive-power studies: Supports measurement and analysis of apparent power, active power and reactive power.
Power-factor training: Helps demonstrate why inductive loads produce a lagging power factor.
Electrical machine applications: Suitable for compatible alternator, generator and transformer laboratory exercises.
Practical measurement value: Allows users to observe voltage and current behaviour under inductive loading.
Institutional use: Intended for supervised electrical engineering and vocational laboratory instruction.

How to Use the Loading Inductor 2.4 kVAR
Confirm that the source voltage, frequency, phase and current ratings match the loading inductor.
Place the unit in a dry, stable and adequately ventilated working area.
Keep the AC source switched off before making or changing connections.
Inspect the terminals, cables, controls, protective devices and earthing connection.
Connect the loading inductor to the designated circuit according to the supplied wiring instructions.
Set the load control to its minimum or disconnected position before energising the source.
Apply the inductive load gradually while monitoring voltage, current, power and temperature.
Remove the load, isolate the supply and allow the unit to cool before disconnecting it.
Safety note: Use the unit only within its confirmed ratings and under qualified supervision. Inductive circuits can produce switching transients and retain magnetic energy briefly after disconnection. Do not touch terminals or alter connections while the supply is energised.
Care & Maintenance
Keep terminals, ventilation areas and control surfaces clean and free from dust.
Inspect cables, insulation, earthing and terminal tightness before each laboratory session.
Allow the unit to cool before cleaning, moving or storing it.
Arrange periodic electrical and insulation checks by qualified technical personnel.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Loading Inductor 2.4 kVAR used for?
It is used to apply an inductive reactive load in an AC circuit. It supports experiments involving current lag, reactive power, power factor and source performance under inductive loading.
What does the 2.4 kVAR rating mean?
The 2.4 kVAR value represents the stated reactive-power capacity of the loading inductor. It is not the same as 2.4 kW of active power.
Does an inductive load cause current to lag voltage?
Yes. In an inductive AC load, current generally lags behind voltage. The exact phase displacement depends on the circuit impedance and operating conditions.
Can this loading inductor be used with an alternator?
It can be used with a compatible alternator when the voltage, current, frequency, phase and reactive-power ratings match. Compatibility must be verified before connection.
Is the Loading Inductor suitable for engineering colleges?
Yes. It is suitable for supervised electrical machines, power systems and alternating-current laboratory experiments in engineering and vocational institutions.
Can it be used for power-factor correction experiments?
Yes, it can provide the inductive load in a power-factor correction experiment when used with suitable capacitive loading and measuring instruments. The complete circuit ratings must be compatible.
